Conductor Peter Stark
A programme featuring milestone works of their time in birthday years! Programme includes:
The overture to Oberon, the final opera from early romantic composer Weber, which premiered in London shortly before his death and paved the way for younger composers including Wagner.
Debussy's Prelude, which is considered by many to be the beginning of modern music, and here showcases the stunning solo flute playing of Marcus Dawe.
Sibelius' most popular symphony, commissioned for his 50th birthday, performed here in its 100th anniversary year.
